Hello everyone,

I used to think this was a huge joke until I tried it - the "turn $5
into $50,000" idea.  But after awhile I started to realize "This
either works or it's a complete scam - but I intend to find out."  

Guess what?  It works! In only three weeks, I've received $1827!!   I
don't know anyone who couldn't use a extra $1800 do you?  And there is
certainly lots more to come for me - up to $55,000!!!

What about you?  You can do it with only $5 and 5 postage stamps
(that's only $6.60 in the USA - hardly what I call a risky investment
when you consider the rewards).  Everyone who tries this will make
much, much more than that, so what have you got to loose?  $5.00 plus
postage?  Big Deal!

Hopefully you can see that this really does work and you'll read on.

Follow this simple, perfectly legal 3 step procedure and you can't go
wrong;

=====================================================
First Step -  Type or write your name and address on 5 separate pieces
of paper with the words "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST". Fold a
$1 bill or money order in each of the pieces of paper, place them in 5
envelopes and mail one to each of the following five addresses:

1- Tami Miller
   200 S. Alpine Dr.
   Cornelius, OR 97113

2- Ken Rose
   5815 Parfet St.
   Arvada, CO. 80004

3- Robert Knowlton
   PO Box 924
   Concord, NH 03302-0924

4- JCL
   1313 Wake Forest Dr. #125
   Davis, CA 95616

5- RFP
   9594 1st Ave, NE, #423
   Seattle, WA   98115

Second Step - Now remove the 1st name on the list, move the other 4
names up (5 becomes 4, 4 becomes 3 etc.) and put your name and address
as number 5 on the list.  You can do this by re-typing this article or
simply editing it in a word processor.

Third Step - Now Post your adjusted article to at least 200 Usenet
news groups (there are over 20,000 of them).

That's it!  You are now in the Mail Order Investment Business and you
will start receiving $1 returns by mail within a week or two. The more
newsgroups you post to, the bigger your return will be.  You may even
want to rent a P O Box to handle the volume of mail you're likely to
receive.

If you wish to remain anonymous, you can use a pseudonym such as "The
Manager" or "The Investor", but make sure your snail mail address is
correct!

How does this work?

Of every 200 postings I made, I received an average of 5 replies for
$5.  Ok that may not seem like much but read on.... 

Each person who sent you $1 also makes - let's say, only 200
additional postings WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 4, i.e. 1000 postings.

On average therefore, 50 people will send you $1 with your name at 
number 4. You make $50.

Your 50 new agents make 200 posting each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 3 or
10,000 postings - average return 500 at $1 each is $500. They make 200
postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 2 = 100 000 postings = 5 000
returns at $1 each = $5 000.

Finally, 5,000 people make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER
1 and you get a return of $50,000 before you name drops off the list.
AND THAT'S IF EVERYONE DOWN THE LINE ONLY MAKES 200 POSTINGS! Total
income in one cycle = $55,500.

And when you drop off the list - simply start over!

Remember, this only costs Five dollars, 5 postage stamps and some
online time.  So what are you waiting for?

You may be thinking "This has been around a while - What happens if
the scheme is 'played out" and no one sends me any money"? 

Big deal! So you lose $5 - but with hundreds of thousands of new
people joining the internet every day thats hardly likely to happen.

Remember, follow the instructions and play fair - send those 5
one-dollar bills (this process is based on honesty not on cheating on
the initial investment).  Perhaps we'll meet on the beach in Hawaii.
That is what my $1827 is going towards (I'll have to think about what
to do with the rest of the $$$$ that is coming my way!)
